Newbie - authentication question

[Gabriel Malik <ga...@hotmail.com>]

I apologize if this question has been brought up before, but I searched and 
couldn't find relevant threads on it.

I'm working on the server side code, and trying to get the username and 
password of the current session.  I called getUserName() method from the 
IMessageData, but it returned blank name.

I'm using Axis C++ version 1.5 over Apache 2.  And using the Apache Basic 
Authentication.

Thank you,
Gabe

Basic authenticationn support was implemented only for client side. It 
was not implemeted on server side.
I wrote some code to support it on client side, but I did not test it 
myself. Not sure if anyone have tested it.
